I agree too.
Before my changes, lcov (
https://gmplib.org/devel/lcov/shell/gmp/mini-gmp/ ) reported for the file
mini-gmp.c:
Date: 2018-12-15 08:18:37
Line Coverage: 98.5 % 2034 / 2066
Functions: 99.0 % 197 / 199
Branches: 87.6 % 1117 / 1275
Now it says:
Date: 2018-12-21 08:03:29
Line Coverage: 98.4 % 2029 / 2061
Functions: 99.0 % 196 / 198

I mean, the lines of code, and branches actually used if mp_limb_t is
unsigned long, did not increase.

I agree, let's do that!

That's an interesting approach. After the step 2 you proposed, we will
decide the best way: code protected with compile time optimised if (cond),
or completely removed by #ifdef with replacements in another file.
